MTV's got the scoop on why AnnaLynne passed up New Moon:But cut to May, and McCord will not be appearing in the film. It turns out that in the process of negotiating a part in the film, she eventually made the decision to drop out. "There was scheduling conflicts and I really just needed a break," she told MTV News on Thursday. "I worked two years, I came straight off 'Nip/Tuck' and on to '90210' and it's wonderful to work, but I needed some R&R."I would be pissed. Who wouldn't want to star in a guaranteed blockbuster? Whatev.
McCord, who described herself as a "hardcore" fan of the series, said that although she decided to pass on "New Moon," that doesn't mean she didn't want to do the film.
"I was [upset] 'cause I really love the film, all of them, the books and everything and I have a lot of friends on the movies," she said. "But in the end, I got to go to Europe for two months ... so I can't say that I'm too pissed."
